Paul Pogba

He is overrated. The 'don't watch him' argument is so weak. A silly assumption and how hard is it to watch Juve and France games?

If you play 15 games and play two or three great games, five good ones, five average ones and two or three poor games, you are not a great player.

His talent is unquestionable.

If you are basing your assumption on a price tag and the fact that some journalists point out that, right now, he is the best, if not the best, then a top 3 CM in the world, then yeah, he is overrated. But if you watch weekly, you'll see that he is amazing in what he does - which is, do his job, by controlling the tempo of the game, bringing forward runs when needed and being a defensive outlet, also when needed. I firmly believe, Jose sees RLC as something like Pogba, but funnily enough he wants him to have workrate, something Pogba doesn't have in abundance either.

Pogba's a very good player but yeah, it's the one of the best midfielders in the world and the price tag. I disagree with the controlling the tempo part though. He did a very well doing that job against City but that's not his usual game. I haven't seen him play such a conservative and controlling role in a long, long time. Proper centre midfielder performance that was. Playmaking, holding on the to the ball with great poise, dominant but still decisive. I hope he'll continue in this role because he's not as good in an advanced position imo.

I have to say though, City's midfield was non-existant. He had an easier time than you'd expect. He had so much space and punished them for it. I still laugh at their incompetence in Europe with so much talent.

Dybala is another gem btw.

Chelsea make new transfer enquiry for Paul Pogba – report

Chelsea look set to revive their interest in Juventus midfielder Paul Pogba after making an enquiry over the Frenchman.

Pogba, 22, is regarded as one of the best young players in the world, and was strongly linked with the Blues back in the summer.

Chelsea now seem to be back in for him again after a drastic dip in form from midfielders Nemanja Matic and Cesc Fabregas this season.

Would he want to come though?

Not sure. I know he loves London and would likely make a small fortune to play here... Is a year out of the champions league really that big a deal? I think it will come down to what is offered to him

pass. Gundogan. Don't let another player go to ManCity who can orchestrate an entire lineup on the pitch. Pogba can't run a midfield and Chelsea need a player who can run the show from centre midfield.

We need structure and an all-rounder, not a tall, skilled AM who's not able to give us everything we need in MF.

If we are really going to get this mofo, give Juve Oscar and that Cuadrado guy, he is playing good for them. And give them 20 millions with those two. They will never get a better deal than that, especially with Cuadrado already playing good there.
